Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Voice, Ukulele, Keyboard, Acoustic Guitar

For piano I prefer Faber Piano Adventures and have different books I would recommend starting with depending on the students age and experience. For guitar and ukulele I prefer using the Hal Leonard method books. I often supplement these method books with outside sources and pieces as is appropriate for the student. For singing students, I have a wide variety of books and resources depending on the musical style. I come from a classical voice background, so when students are middle school age and older (sometimes earlier) we begin learning Italian Art songs in addition to musical theater pieces and English folk songs.

I'm guitarist who loves teaching and sharing my affinity for music. I graduated from Florida State University in 2016 with a BA in Music, emphasizing classical guitar.

From there I performed with guitar and folk ensembles in a variety of locations in Tallahassee, FL. Read More

I make sure that all my students stay happy in the lesson and excited to learn new things. Read More
